EAA Airventure 2008

Wolftep

I'm new to Dgrin, and have been mostly just reading and learning from the many fine posters on this site. I decided it was time to share something of my own, so here are some photos I took earlier this year at the EAA Airventure 2008 show in Oshkosh, WI. I took these using an Olympus E-500 with the Zuiko ED 70-300mm F4.0-5.6 lens. This was my first time ever shooting airplanes while in flight. Each is SOOC, as doing PP is something also fairly new to me. That being said, any comments are welcome. Thanks!

Nice shots, Tom! Very good work for your first time. You managed to get some nice prop blur - too many times people shoot props at a high shutter speed and freeze them, but you did a good job on these.

Hi there Wolftep, so this is your first post hey .... yippy
I like your first one, formation flying is awesome to watch.

Wow in number #6 you can see the downward vapours,
I think its pretty cool how those jets can hover and do vertical take offs.

The parachute jumpers with the National Flags are always a colourful display to watch.

You did really well, thank you for posting, and I hope you will continue to post and share your work .... Skippy
